We investigated the therapeutic potential of polymerized anthocyanin (PA) on a nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) model in mice. C57BL/6 mice were fed high-fat diet (HFD) for 8 weeks to establish NAFLD mouse and randomly divided into four groups: control (con), treated with saline (NAFLD), PA (PA), orlistat (Orlistat) weeks. Mice euthanized at end Total cholesterol (TC) triglyceride (TG) levels estimated, pathological changes liver, white adipose tissue, signaling pathways related...

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common chronic disease of the urinary system among elderly men. Especially, metabolic imbalance androgen in men one leading causes BPH. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and converted testosterone by 5-α reductase type 2 (5AR2), binding with receptor (AR), affect prostate proliferation growth. In BPH, levels signaling-related protein expression are shown highly. Androgen signaling induces overexpression prostate-specific antigen (PSA) cell factor such as...
To explore the inhibitory mechanism of heat-killed
The present study determines whether antler extract (AE) possesses inhibitory effects in a prostate cancer (PC) xenograft model and explores the underlying mechanism. After therapeutic intervention for two weeks, AE significantly inhibited tumor growth by 65.08%, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) serum dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels. However, increased testosterone level compared to vehicle control group. Furthermore, our investigation of on angiogenesis epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition...
Dry eye disease is a chronic, progressive ocular characterised by discomfort and one of the most common ophthalmological disorders that affects people's lives.This study investigated clinical efficacy anthocyanin oligomers (grape skin extract) for treatment dry eye. One hundred eight patients with were randomly divided into placebo groups, each 54 cases. The group received maltodextrin (800 mg/day) mg/day). Clinical efficacy, indices, occurrence adverse reactions compared between two...
: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the major public health concerns, which has a high prevalence rate and causes significant decline in men's quality life. BPH highly related to sexual hormone metabolism aging. In particular, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), testosterone modified by 5α-reductase (5AR), effect on development. DHT binds an androgen receptor (AR) steroid coactivator 1 (SRC-1); then, it induces proliferation prostate cell expression specific antigen (PSA). Paecilomyces...
This study investigated the effects of Momordica charantia (M. charantia) extract in obesity and abnormal lipid metabolism mice fed high fat diet (HFD). Fruit, root, stem, leaf extracts M. were obtained using distilled water, 70% ethanol 95% hexane. water (MCLW) showed highest antioxidant activity both 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging tests reducing power. Metabolite profiles analyzed for identification bioactive compounds. HFD-fed treated with MCLW (oral dose 200...
Abstract Considering the emergence of bacterial resistance and low proteolytic stability antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), herein we developed a series ultra-short triazine based amphipathic polymers (TZP) that are connected with ethylene diamine linkers instead protease sensitive amide bond. The most potent oligomers, TZP3 TZP5 not only displayed antibacterial action on various drug-resistant pathogens but also exhibited strong synergic activity in combination chloramphenicol against...
In this study, we investigated the anti-obesity properties of novel peptide Ala-Gly-Leu-Gln-Phe-Pro-Val-Gly-Arg (AGL9), isolated from enzymatic hydrolysate Allomyrinadichotoma larvae. To investigate preventive effects AGL9 against hepatic steatosis and its possible mechanisms action, established an nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) model by feeding C57BL/6 mice a high-fat diet. NAFLD were administered 100 mg/kg 60 orlistat via gavage (10 mL/kg) for 5 weeks, followed collection blood...
The aim of this study was to identify an anti-obesity peptide from Allomyrina dichotoma and investigate the lipid metabolic mechanism. Enzymatically hydrolyzed A. larvae were further separated using tangential flow filtration consecutive chromatographic processes. Finally, that showed highest inhibitory effect on accumulation obtained, sequence Glu-Ile-Ala-Gln-Asp-Phe-Lys-Thr-Asp-Leu (EIA10). EIA10 decreased aggregation in vitro significantly reduced body weight gain, liver weight, adipose...
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a widely researched chronic inflammatory skin disease with complex etiology. The increased prevalence of AD necessitates exploration natural sources as potential therapeutic agents limited side effects. In the current study, 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (DNCB)-induced mouse model was used to examine anti-AD effects Tenebrio molitor trypsin hydrolysate (TMTH) and its underlying molecular mechanism. DNCB-treated mice were treated TMTH (1 10 mg/kg), prednisolone (3...
